Overview:
Dalux is widely used for BIM viewing, field quality assurance and facility management, often run alongside a second CDE for design or construction delivery. CDE Sync™ automates that exchange, keeping Dalux consistent with every other connected platform. Retiring a platform altogether rather than running an ongoing sync? CDE Migrate™ handles that one-off move instead, preserving version history, metadata and audit trails intact.
Who it's for:
BIM Managers, Digital Engineers, Document Controllers, Site Managers and Facility Managers running Dalux alongside another CDE.
What CDE Sync™ does for Dalux users:
Synchronises documents, models and metadata between Dalux and every other connected CDE
Maps metadata fields automatically against the target platform's schema
Preserves version history and folder structure across the sync
Logs every transfer for audit and compliance purposes
Pairs with Issues Sync™ to keep issues, RFIs and defects raised in Dalux Field connected across every other CDE on your project
How it connects:
CDE Sync™ connects to Dalux through a dedicated service account and secure API integration, configured through CDE Sync™'s no-code wizard alongside your Dalux administrator.
Also syncs with:
Autodesk Forma (BIM360/ACC), Bentley ProjectWise, Microsoft SharePoint, Procore, Oracle Aconex, 12d Synergy, Asite, InEight, Trimble, Bluebeam, Egnyte, Dalux, RIB, and Azure Blob.
Security:
Built on Microsoft Azure and hosted in your choice of data region to meet residency and sovereignty requirements, see our Global Data Regions map. SOC 2 Type II certified, full detail on our Security & Trust Portal. Zero file persistence, your data is streamed, never stored.
FAQs:
Can CDE Sync™ replace manually re-uploading between Dalux and our other CDE?
> Yes, that's the exact problem this integration is built for.
How long does a Dalux connection take to set up?
> Typically 15 to 30 minutes.
Can we sync in both directions, or only one way?
> CDE Sync™ supports inbound, outbound and bi-directional syncs, configured per project.
Does this affect our existing Dalux folders or permissions?
> No, CDE Sync™ preserves your existing Dalux folder structure and permissions.
What if we want to migrate off Dalux entirely, not just sync?
> That's CDE Migrate™, our one-off migration service. It moves everything at once, preserving version history, metadata and audit trails, rather than keeping platforms continuously synchronised.
Can this also sync issues, RFIs and defects, not just documents and models?
> Yes, that's handled by Issues Sync™, which keeps issues in Dalux Field connected to every other CDE on your project.
